Question

Please Help !!!

Identify the oblique asymptote of f(x) = quantity 2 x squared plus 3 x plus 8 over quantity x plus 3

y = 2x - 3

y = 2x + 9

y = 0

No oblique asymptote

Sorry I can't really help you here. Try posting the link to this in the chats?

Answer 12

divide

Answer 13

you will get a quotient and a remainder
ignore the remainder, the quotient is the slant asympote

Answer 14

huh ? i don't get it, i'm completely lost. @satellite73

Answer 15

you know what i mean by "divide"
we can do it if you like

Answer 16

ok can you walk me through

Answer 17

\[\frac{2x^2+3x+3}{x+8}\] right?

Answer 18

it is hard to write division here
do you know how to do synthetic division? that is much easier

Answer 19

not quite, its 2x^2 + 3x+8 over x + 3

Answer 20

\[\frac{2x^2+3x+8}{x+3}\]

Answer 21

yes

Answer 22

you know synthetic division?

Answer 23

no, I''m not very good at math. and they make us use calculators in schools here

Answer 24

2 3 8
-3
___________

Answer 25

bring down the 2
2 3 8
-3
_____________
2

Answer 26

then \(-3\times 2=-6)
2 3 8
-3 -6
_____________
2

Answer 27

add
2 3 8
-3 -6
_____________
2 -3

Answer 28

we can actually stop right there
the bottom line 2 , -3 means the quotient is \(2x-3\) and your slant asymptote is
\[y=2x-3\]

Answer 29

there is a remainder, but you can ignore it for the slant asymptote
if you don't do it this way you have to do long division
x + 3 |2x^2 + 3 +8 etc
can't really write it in this format

Answer 30

hmm, so it's A ?

Answer 31

i have no idea what A is
but i am pretty sure it is \(y=2x-3\)

Answer 32

okay , thanks so much
